"Boss, no matter what, the brothers are where they are today because of you. All of us have also had our fates changed because of you and are now at the pinnacle of Yingzhou. Meeting you is truly the greatest luck in our lives."
I don't know who said the softest words, but it was these words that completely moved Xu Yang. Everyone in the team seemed to have tears in their eyes at this moment.
"Haha, this kind of words should actually be buried deep in your heart and not spoken out. Otherwise, you will be cheating everyone's tears and will be punished. The Glory Corps does not need tears!"
Everyone laughed and stopped this tear-jerking scene in time.
Almost at the same moment, Lingyao had also completed the process of self-cultivation. Unfortunately, she did not complete the breakthrough in strength this time. However, she also gained great benefits from this battle and accumulated enough battlefield experience. I believe that it will not be long before she can get her own breakthrough opportunity and truly reach the status of the strongest in the Glory Dragon Rider Team.
"Well, now that you're all back in fighting shape, it's time to welcome our next new member."
Everyone in the Dragon Riders team showed excitement when they heard this, because they all knew exactly what Xu Yang meant, which was that they were going to set out for the Emperor Soul Corps headquarters to put a successful end to this battle to unify the entire western region of Yingzhou continent.
Shi Tiandao also needs the strong support of Xu Yang and others. Otherwise, if he goes back to question those old guys like a fool, the only outcome he will get is to die in the headquarters of the Emperor Soul Corps.
As expected, everything was going according to Xu Yang's control. Shi Tiandao returned to the Imperial Corps headquarters with a sad face, but what he saw was just an empty lobby with exquisite decorations.
But today is the first time in all these years that Shi Tiandao feels this place is so empty, so strange, and so lonely. It doesn't seem to be a place worth staying in at all.
It’s a pity that I have spent too much of my youth in this place, and when the day comes to say goodbye, it is still difficult to let go.
Looking at the high throne at the end of the hall, Shi Tiandao once sat on that throne and always felt that the throne was born to belong to him.
But now when Shi Tiandao saw the throne again, the complex emotions in his heart could not be described in words. The unprecedented sense of strangeness and rejection in his heart made him feel extremely angry.
"Haha, it was that old guy who blinded my eyes. I have always thought that everything I have is the result of years of hard work. It seems that I am too naive. Even if I, Shi Tiandao, perish in this place, I will never be a puppet of those old guys."
Thinking of this, Shi Tiandao suddenly attacked, sending out an extremely powerful aura wave that smashed the throne in the hall into pieces. At this moment, three old men fell from the air in the empty hall.
Shi Tiandao was not unfamiliar with the two people on the left and right of these three old guys. They were all core figures among the elders behind the Emperor Soul Corps. The only difference was the old guy in the middle who was very old and looked like a dying tree. He even needed a blood-red dragon-headed cane to support his body. Even Shi Tiandao had never seen this person before.
Little did people know that this old guy was the founder of the Pupil Devouring Project and the instigator of the tragedy that happened to the Soul Devouring King. He was the true living fossil behind the Emperor Soul Corps.
What frightened Shi Tiandao was that he had no way of judging the slightest fluctuation of the old guy's aura, and had no way of judging to what extent this person's strength had reached. However, from his aura and the respectful attitude of the two core elders on his left and right, it could be seen that this old guy was the real controller of the Emperor Soul Corps.
"My child, I have been watching your growth silently behind your back all these years. I always thought you would be the next true leader of the Emperor Soul Corps. It's a pity that you still have the idea of betrayal in your heart. It's really regrettable."
Shi Tiandao couldn't help but burst into laughter. "The achievements, scale and influence of the regiment today are all due to my hard work. Are you old guys hiding behind the scenes and trying to act as my puppets?
Then you really think too much.
I built him with my own hands and I can destroy him with my own hands. Just pretend that I have never been to the Emperor Soul Corps. I will never be a puppet at your mercy!
Everything in the Emperor Soul Corps can belong to you, or it may not belong to you!
Trying to make me your puppet in the same way you controlled the Soul Devouring Heavenly King is really wishful thinking!"
Shi Tiandao's words to the three people in front of him were equivalent to tearing apart the last glimmer of hope for possible peaceful negotiations between the two sides. Perhaps the situation today can only end with a fight to the death.
"Hahaha, he's really a stubborn kid, Third Brother. I remember when you took this kid into the Emperor Soul Corps and brought him home, he wasn't as temperamental as he is now. It seems like he's been sitting on the throne for too long and has forgotten his own identity.
Well, sooner or later you will want to fly away when your wings are strong enough, but as long as I am an old man and have not yet died, everything in the Emperor Soul Corps cannot escape my control. If you want to fly away, it’s fine. Leave your wings behind and crawl out of this place covered in blood, and you will have a chance to be reborn.”
Shi Tiandao couldn't help but burst into laughter, and the desire to defend his dignity from deep within his heart completely erupted, "Okay, with your abilities, you still want to attack me?
If you can do it, please deprive me of everything. If you can't, just let me step out of this door today. From today on, I will be irreconcilable with the Emperor Soul Corps!
I will also use my own strength to destroy everything I have built!"
Shi Tiandao released endless violent power in his rage.
There is no doubt that the power demonstrated by just this burst of the body's aura is far superior to that of the Eight Heavenly Kings.
To be precise, Shi Tiandao's strength should be ranked among the top three in the Glory Dragon Riders. It is impossible to analyze who is stronger between him, King Kong and Ling Yao based on the current situation, but his actual combat ability is indeed far higher than that of the other members of the Dragon Riders.
In just a moment, the shape of a tiger quickly condensed behind Shi Tiandao. This tiger totem was the ultimate manifestation of the tiger technique he practiced.
